At this time we are being swamped with agents pushing centre backs to answer the perceived plight, having been linked with roncaglia before no surprise here also hearing rudiger unlikely as Monaco in frame, omer toprak, felipe Santana and phillipe hothschield who are all plying their trade in Germany are under view, further to yesterdays post have now become top bidders for obiang; problem with amalfitano is not money! he wants a three year contract , he has not been offered this at present; their are 8 English clubs interested. also looking at sol bamba (remember him) Leicester his old club interested/ don't know much about bojinov. we were close to signing insua before getting jenkinson on loan; Ashley young likely to go back to villa not us with his pal tom cleverly; still hearing about slimani; dgs got to bid big numbers if they pursue wickham, as hull armed with dough from shane long sale now in pursuit; we have also been vying with hull making enquiries about aboubkar; hull also trying to snare zaha; centre back was always seen as weakness by fans why didn't sam see this. ; one injury, one card and were done; and that's what's happened I know we can play diame in front of kouyate; but maybe its best our weaknesses become apparent whilst we can try to rectify them before September 1st; dgs are going to have to dig a lot deeper to compete with other clubs who are not standing still i'm expecting up to 4 more in and at least two out ;its a big ask but with the new stadium coming we have to move faster just to stand still if you get my meaning ;just heard everton have joined the gang in pusuit of zaha IRONMIKE

Any ideas if we are going to go back in for Connor Wickham? can't help but think that we are missing a trick with him and that he could be the new Ashton if played correctly
